CTF/HQ Server, Broadsword! Options

[Rommel]

I think the key to success is this...



Pick 1-2 days a week over the next 2-3 weeks and call it "Broadsword" day. On that day, between 8-11 est, as many MOBs as possible that find the map the least bit interesting should go there.




It isn't good enough to just slap a good map on the server. We need to fill it for a while so people know it is out there. My 2 cents.

Can we try betwen 5-6 est. I like that map, and i will be there

I think Broadsword is a great map as you have to have skill and team work in order to accomplish the goals.

My Wife's Mule suggested it long ago as well, but the silly suggested it to replace/share with the Barb server, which was a total no-no. BUt people like this map. On CTF it is fun too. I'd be for it rotating b/w ctf and base assult.



Even us BArb lovers should at least try and ramp up the server for the next week or 2. Let's call today, "Broadsword Friday". Everyone give this map a go tonite who's playing.



And over the next few days, "camp" the server if your away from your desk but can leave CoD running. By that I mean, load up Broadsword and stay in spectate...unless it's near full fo course .

MoD's idea of rotating CTF and BAS sounds good to me.

Anyone object to this?

CTF and BAS! Dogs and Cats? Sure! I think it would be a good mix!

About Smolensk, I remember EXACTLY how Smolensk failed. Because there was a pak behind German's spawn Ruskies could get one and kill Germans as they spawned. A good 12v12 game was absolutely ruined when someone got on that pak and spawnkilled us German's for 2 straight minutes while we could not even as much as take one single step, no exageration, no lie. I came in and posted something like "The Smolensk map can go to hell". Anyway, a lot of other people I think felt the same way, as I NEVER saw anyone in the map again for BA. People were complaining about that problem before my particular game, but I think that game turned off the last group of players who hadn't expereinced an absolutely hopeless spawn rape situation. I mean it. You didn't have time to do ANYTHING, the shooter had the timing so perfect.



Anyway, IMO. that's what killed Smolensk. They tried the domination mode after that (Which I actually liked) because the server instantly turned into a ghost town. That spawn killing pak was a fatal flaw.



However, Smolensk was better CTF and Conquest anyway. I don't think it was ever a great BA map. It's still out there as a CTF, and is fun.

Changing topics, lets do something I think we can ALL agree on...change the Vent "cassino" channel to say "Broadsword". I think this should be our last, best shot at creating a server people go to. Otherwise, there's no point supporting an empty server.

the smolenks map was fixed finally and is still in rotation by a few other clans.its actually a pretty good map. i just think in the begining theres going to be a bit of talk about the new server and if they cant find it it will die.anyway im just glad we have the map playing,it is a breath of fresh air!



ps mod-i typed 3 times about the guy on the righ,hehe!
